Rarity gives a charm; so early fruits and winter roses are the most prized; and coyness sets off an extravagant mistress, while the door always open tempts no suitor.

Red-haired, black-lipped, club-footed, and blink-eyed; if you're a good man, you're a wonder!

For life is only life when blessed with health.

It is as good as second life to be able to look back upon our past life with pleasure

It is folly to waste labour about trifles.

Some are good, some are middling, the most are bad.

I have not hated the man, but his faults.
